Protecting global computer systems requires skilled professionals, and earning an MS in Cyber Security could position you for this vital role. Our graduates pursue diverse paths including computer forensics, information security leadership, and forensic accounting.

This degree opens doors to numerous specialized fields. Recognizing cybersecurity's multifaceted nature, we've combined expertise from both the College of Arts and Sciences and the Collat School of Business to develop this comprehensive program. The core curriculum includes hands-on coursework in networking, network security, digital forensics, cyber risk assessment, and information security governance. Students can then specialize in either cyber investigations - mastering digital evidence analysis and cybercrime legal procedures - or focus on fraud examination techniques within IT auditing. Before graduation, we facilitate internship opportunities to gain practical experience and launch your professional journey.
